Designer Ito Morabito speaks to Design Boom

why this interest in brands?
when I was young I was fascinated by brands,
about their history …
at the beginning a brand is a person who has a dream
(and it is very difficult to realise the dream).
when I began, I tried to project my imagination on brands,
the most iconic ones.
I proclaimed myself their artistic director.
I used their logos in my designs without asking for permission.
everybody knows the fake ‘branded’ products,

…. it made me quite famous.
now I am the artistic director of a lot of big brands.
my dream came true.
